.load() a web page into a site? - javascript

I'm making a site where the different pages are brought in by .load(), the problem is that index.php is initially empty and my other efforts have simply loaded the page into itself or left the page empty (pages can still be emptied and loaded from #contentspace though). My current code loads nothing, i'm sure i'm doing several things wrong, I just need to know where to start. do i need to use php for this?
//load page into contentspace by default?
var defaultpage = "blog.php";
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentspace").load(defaultpage);
)};

You have a syntax error with your closing of the $(document).ready )}; for one. As you can see in my demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/n1ck/NNpqq/9/ it is requesting the blog.php file.
//load page into contentspace by default?
var defaultpage = "blog.php";
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentspace").load(defaultpage);
});​

Javascript From Console - Load a Few Pages, Then Run Function Per Page Load [duplicate]

I'd like to be able to call a jquery function once window.location has completed loading a URL. Is this possible? I can't seem to find anything online about this.
for instance:
if(parseInt(msg.status)==1) {
window.location=msg.txt;
alert("This URL has finished loading")
}
Thanks,
-Paul
You can either use window.onload of the destination page (if you have access to modify the code of that page), or you can use window.onunload to have the alert be launched when unloading the current page. You cannot execute code on the current page after the new page has been loaded.
Yes.
This page demonstrates onload/onunload behavior.
<html>
<head>
<script>
window.doUnload = function(){
alert("Here!");
}
window.doLoad = function(){
window.location="http://www.google.com";
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="doLoad();" onunload="doUnload();"></body>
</html>
After a user logs in for the first time I need to load my index page to initialize everything but then need to forward them to another page for profile completion.
use window.location to redirect the user to your index, adding a query parameter (something like window.location=index.php?firstLogin=true ) and on your index redirect (using javascipt http 300, header() or whatever you are using) to the profile page after it ends loading if the parameter is set
Iframe
One (ugly) method you could use is to instead of using window.location, clearing the body, adding an iframe with the relevant path and listening to its onload function.
After that you can run code inside the iframe as long as it's not cross-site scripting.
I use this method to perform small automated scripts, that can't really on third-party plugins.
Ajax
Another method might be using ajax to load the page/body content. Then replacing your body with the newly loaded body and start executing the next functions.

Using $.getScript (jquery): code is not executed

I am working on updating my website, which now uses an AJAX engine. My engine works well, up-to-hand for some reason some pages do not execute javascript, let me explain: when the anchor change I use $.get for data recovery. The pages have this structure:
title
h1
script1.js,script2.js,etc.js
style1.css,style2.css,etc.css
<!--there's the page's content-->
It appears reload the page solves the problem, but i don't understand what is different. In the previous code, the engine runs successfully, reloaded or not:
$.getScript("script1.js");
$.getScript("script2.js");
$.getScript("etc.js");
In addition, a php generated script contains user's current state under an Object form:
$(function(){
user = new Object();
user.id = user.logged = <?php echo $user->getId();?>;
user.nick = "<?php echo $user->getNick();?>";
user.mail = "<?php echo $user->getMail();?>";
user.logout = function(){
};
});
The $.getScript request is successful, but the user object is not changed. The script, however, has yet been modified. And it don't works from console too.
The update is currently online at v2.wawolf.com, you'll find everything you need.
Hotlink: Engine's code
I just solved my problem: when all document is loaded, $(function(){}) will not work again, so calling a script which uses $(function(){}) will no get run. I removed it from all my secondary-called scripts and now all works perfectly!
it might just be a loading order issue.
try encapsulating the JS loading in an onload function
$(window).load(function(){
//get script loads here
}
or
$(document).ready(function() {
//get script loads here
}
Sometimes I use one inside the other for dynamic JS script that needs to be loaded last.

document.location strange behaviour? / alternative jsTree link solution?

I've build up an menu with jQuery.jsTree and every item should contain a link to a specific page. With jsTree it isnt possible to click these links due to the prevention of the standard behaviour of
<a href="index.php?content=example" ... >....</a>
links (this is actually an example of one of my links. The index.php is my standard page and just the content will be replaced). In order to fix that I found this solution:
jQuery(".tree").bind("select_node.jstree", function (e, data) {
document.location = data.rslt.obj.children("a").attr("href");
});
This solution works partly for me, which means the clicked link works but in the opened window Firebug tells me that jQuery is not defined. Is it possible that on document.location the browser "forget" the library imports (as I mentioned I stay on the index.php page and just replace the content)?
and the other question is: does anyone may know a better solution for the enabling of the links in jsTree without edit the library itself ?
thanks in advance!
If your links at first look like:
<a href="index.php?content=example" ... >....</a>
And you want to load the content into a div with ID maincontent
You can do something like:
$(".tree a").each(function(){
var $this = $(this);
$this.click(function(){
$("#maincontent").load($this.href, function(){
// this callback functions fires once load is complete,
// incase you need to do post-load operations
});
return false;
});
});
This will byposs loading the new page as a normal link would, and fetch the page via AJAX and load the returned HTML into the DIV with ID maincontent.
Code is untested, but I've done this in the past so should work as is.

jQuery and Ajax to dynamically load new page

I am attempting to create a static microsite that has a list of pages. I have a main file 'index.php' with a list of links like the following:
Go to page 1
Go to page 2
What I'm trying to do is something like (http://voiceandtone.com/) where when you click on a page it fades-out the current page you are on and animates in the new page without refreshing the page.
Does anyone know how I can achieve this or if there are any great tutorials out there that can help me?
Maybe somethig like this ?
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function() {
$('#result').load("http://domain.com" + $(this).attr('href'), function(){
// Stuff to do after the page is loaded
});
});
});
here is documentation http://api.jquery.com/load/
The answer is Ajax. You can use either the GET or POST method to achieve your task.

jQuery code repeating problem

I have a piece of code in jQuery that I use to get the contents of an iFrame after you click a link and once the content is completed loading. It works, but I have a problem with it repeating - at least I think that is what it is doing, but I can't figure out why or how.
jQuery JS:
$(".pageSaveButton").bind("click",function(){
var theID = $(this).attr("rel");
$("#fileuploadframe").load(function(){
var response = $("#fileuploadframe").contents().find("html").html();
$.post("siteCreator.script.php",
{action:"savePage",html:response, id: theID},
function(data){
alert(data);
});
});
});
HTML Links ( one of many ):
<a href="templates/1000/files/index.php?pg=0&preview=false"
target="fileuploadframe" class="pageSaveButton" rel="0">Home</a>
So when you click the link, the page that is linked to is opened into the iframe, then the JS fires and waits for the content to finish loading and then grabs the iframe's content and sends it to a PHP script to save to a file. I have a problem where when you click multiple links in a row to save multiple files, the content of all the previous files are overwritten with the current file you have clicked on. I have checked my PHP and am pretty positive the fault is with the JS.
I have noticed that - since I have the PHP's return value alerted - that I get multiple alert boxes. If it is the first link you have clicked on since the main page loaded - then it is fine, but when you click on a second link you get the alert for each of the previous pages you clicked on in addition to the expected alert for the current page.
I hope I have explained well, please let me know if I need to explain better - I really need help resolving this. :) (and if you think the php script is relevant, I can post it - but it only prints out the $_POST variables to let me know what page info is being sent for debugging purposes.)
Thanks ahead of time,
Key
From jQuery .load() documentation I think you need to change your script to:
$(".pageSaveButton").bind("click",function(){
var theID = $(this).attr("rel");
var lnk = $(this).attr("href");//LINK TO LOAD
$("#fileuploadframe").load(lnk,
function(){
//EXECUTE AFTER LOAD IS COMPLETE
var response = $("#fileuploadframe").contents().find("html").html();
$.post("siteCreator.script.php",
{
action:"savePage",
html:response,
id: theID
},
function(data){alert(data);}
);
});
});
As for the multiple responses, you can use something like blockui to disable any further clicks till the .post call returns.
This is because the line
$("#fileuploadframe").load(function(){
Gets executed every time you press a link. Only add the loadhandler to the iframe on document.ready.
If a user has the ability via your UI to click multiple links that trigger this function, then you are going to run into this problem no matter what since you use the single iframe. I would suggest creating an iframe per save process, that why the rendering of one will not affect the other.
